Background

Toots Productions was the production company of Michael Braverman, creator of Life Goes On.

1st Logo (September 19, 1987-January 13, 1997)

Logo: Superimposed in the credits, we see this disclaimer:

a toots production
in association with

On Life Goes On, the disclaimer is in the same font as the show's logo, opening credits, and the beginning of the end credits.

Variant: On the 1997 TV movie Home Invasion, this in-credit notice is used on a black background:

TOOTS PRODUCTIONS, INC.
IN ASSOCIATION WITH

Technique: None.

Music/Sounds: The end theme plays while the notice is shown.

Availability: Rare; seen on the 1987 TV movie Desperate, the first two seasons of Life Goes On (1989-1991), and the 1997 TV movie Home Invasion. The first season of Life Goes On is available on DVD from Warner Home Video.


2nd Logo (September 22, 1991-May 23, 1993)


Logo: On a mostly black gradient background with streaks of red in the top corners and dark blue across the bottom, we see the following logo in light blue letters:

toots
PRODUCTIONS

We slowly zoom out as the text suddenly shakes. A snowglobe fades in and places the Toots Productions logo inside it while they both shake. The words "IN ASSOCIATION WITH" in the same font and color as the "PRODUCTIONS" text, but smaller, appear below, and the particles inside continue to move about.

Technique: The zooming out, the snowglobe appearing and shaking by itself.

Music/Sounds: The end theme plays over the logo, or a short synthesized tune.

Availability: Rare; seen on the final two seasons of Life Goes On (1991-1993). This was also seen on the 1992 TV movie Condition: Critical.
